Description:
This smaller-sized garden packs a punch in late winter/early spring with a fine display of hellebores. A collection of over 100 of these beautiful plants has been built up over the last few years and nursery-grown hellebores are constantly being supplemented by plants grown from collected seed. The collection includes hellebores in a wide range of colours in both the single and double forms. Home-grown double whites are a particular favourite. The garden is bordered by trees on its long side which provide a backdrop to the garden and supply the partial shade which hellebores love. Other plantings, including acers, magnolia and rhododendrons, all add to the woodland feel.
Directions: Please park on the roadside adjacent to Preston House Care Home, Alburne Park KY7 5RB. Follow the pavement about 250m further down the road to the house which is first on the left. Limited closer parking is available on request as is Saturday bus information.
Other details: Ashwood Nursery and garden-grown hellebores for sale.
